Apparently, Prime Rib is Recession-Proof!

Dick and I are long-overdue to taking our friends Pete & Richard out to celebrate Richard's Birthday. (his birthday was in January, which was the month that Dick and I were each sick 2 times.)

Last night, we both had a craving for House of Prime Rib and thought that it would be a great place for the four of us to go this weekend for a belated celebration. On a side note, Dick and I were supposed to go in late January, while his sister was here. Unfortunately, we were both sick that night, and had to miss out, while the rest of the family went.

I checked Open Table for reservations for HoPR for Saturday evening. Now, I realize that it's already the Wednesday before, and it's only 3 days out, but I was hoping that they might still have a table. No go. Only available time was 9:00pm, which is simply too late for us, since we're usually getting ready to go to bed around that time. ;)

I thought I'd give the restaurant a call to see if they happen to have any extra seats that they don't allot to Open Table. Nope. Still 9:00.

Bummer.

So again, I know I tried to make this reservation fairly late in the week, and I know that, although it's still a treat, House of Prime Rib isn't as pricey as other a la cart-type Steak Houses, but still....

It's good to know that even in this economy, the House of Prime Rib is doing just fine. :)
